Most people will find that a 2m will be adequate in length and any extra length in the tail can be used along the top rail to offer a little extra head support for a newborn or sleeping baby, or rethreaded back through the rings a few times to offer some extra padding over the rings. There are a few different styles of ring sling shoulders. It is how the manufacturer has sewn the set of rings into the woven wrap.
We stock both gathered and pleated shoulders across the brands we offer. Some people who have had the opportunity to try both to compare have a clear idea of which they prefer. For others they base their decision on the ring sling they like the look of.
It really comes down to personal preference. Woven Wrap Sizing Woven wraps come in various sizes based on their length. There are minimal differences between brands but generally woven wrap sizing is as follows: Size 2: 2.
Ring Sling Sizing Ring Slings are generally around the 2m mark. You can keep your neck and shoulders warm, and make a quick hip carry for your tired toddler when necessary. Size 2 — 2,6 — 2,7 meters. This size is still suitable for new sew ring sling, or hip carry, and allows you to tie carries which requires slightly more fabrics, such as Rucksack tied under bum.
Size 3 — 3,2 meters. This size allows you to tie one layer back carry such as Rucksack, hip carry or torso carry. Size 4 — 3,6 — 3,7 meters. What I love about the long woven wrap is that you can use it for so many things. You can use it for hip carries for older children or for quick back carries; you can use it for warm and snuggly multi-layer front carries or super supportive multi-layer back carries, and more!
There's just so much variety, and if you take the time to learn and to try different styles, you'll find that you can get so much more out of the carrier, and you'll also find that you have need for more sizes!
The short answer is, most people find that starting with a size 6 works for what they need to learn. For the long answer , keep reading! Sizing is really dependent on a few different considerations: Caregiver size, age of child, and types of carries. The first category to consider is your typical size.
A front wrap cross carry is a three-layer front carry. This is a good carry to learn with a small baby, and it gives you a lot of extra support. We usually start caregivers with this carry as it helps you to understand and learn how your wrap works and is pretty forgiving. However, that doesn't mean that this is the only size you could use, or that it's the only size you could be comfortable with.
What's wonderful about a long woven wrap as opposed to a stretchy wrap is that a long woven wrap is very versatile. A stretchy wrap, for example, can only be safely used with multi-layer carries. What that means is, you have to have enough extra length to be able to go over your child multiple times and be able to then still come back around and tie off. With a long woven wrap, your child can be safely carried with a single layer pass. Not only is this lighter for both of you, but it also means that if you don't want to carry multi-layer passes that you can use a shorter length of wrap and still be very comfortable.
If you are typically size XS or small, a size 5 may be a good starting point for you. Larger sizes may be more comfortable in a size 8 or a custom size 9. Smaller sizes than those might use a size 4, but this is a very uncommon base size. The next thing to consider is the age of your baby. But, if you are someone whose little one likes to do quick ups and downs, or if they are a little one who doesn't do a lot of aerobics while being worn and can stay pretty nicely in the carrier, then you may want to and I encourage you to try to!
This is similar to a ring sling, but without the rings, so we use knots to tie off instead of the rings for support. You can also do quick back carries or ruck carries, tied under the bum or other variations. These are simple single layer carries that use a lot less fabric. On the other hand, if you are carrying a newborn baby or a small infant, you don't need to worry about sizing up or down in particular because small babies aren't typically able to be carried on the hip or back just yet.
We do not recommend this for new wrappers. Usually, hip and back carries begin when you start naturally placing baby on your hip. This usually coincides with when they are starting to sit unassisted--somewhere around 4 - 6 months is typically a good time to start.
With newborns and infants, sometimes you'll use multi-layer carries and sometimes you won't, which is the nice thing about the flexibility o the long woven wrap. But, with a young baby, you likely won't need to do super short carries unless you want to. You can use a size 4 with a newborn and do a front version of a traditional sling carry, as an example. For many, though, a base size length front carry is an ideal one, and you can do several types of front carries with a base size wrap.
